ngspice

File Release Notes and Changelog

Release Name: 16

Notes:

Rework-16 comes out after almost one year of CVS development (from
15-fixedRC3). This release improves ngspice in three ways:

- Bug fixing: most of the bugs that affected rework-15 have been fixed,
    thus ngspice is more stable, especially the xspice extension, the 
    subcircuit (X devices) handling and the numparam library.
    
- New features: netlist syntax has been expandend allowing for end-of-line
    comments. A ".global" card has beed added to define global nodes, i.e. 
    nodes that are not expanded in subcircuits. It is possible to define TC 
    for resistors on the instance line. The editline library can be used
    instead of readline (no more GPL license violation).

- Porting: ngspice now works (with xspice extension) on Windows using 
           MINGW/MSYS.
